As the 'North Star' of the academic world, Nature has served as the primary stage for landmark discoveries—ranging from the double-helix structure of DNA to the detection of gravitational waves—since its inception in 1869. Its influence reflects a profound 'Matthew Effect': despite receiving tens of thousands of submissions annually, its acceptance rate consistently remains below 8%. This exclusivity ensures that its reach and citation metrics are inextricably linked to scientific prestige. Even in the digital landscape of 2026, the average exposure of a single Nature paper dwarfs the annual total of most specialized journals, firmly cementing its status as the 'King of Impact' in scientific publishing.
